Our Story

We're Krish and Rowan, we're Ruckus.

what we do

how we started

Our first project together is Ruckus Retreat - an interdisciplinary creative retreat featuring workshops, creating time, evening events, and feedback sessions. The idea for the retreat was born from conversations with other young creatives wanting an event that was community-driven, interactive, and non-hierarchical. Ruckus isn't about sitting silently in front of panels taking notes in a row- it's about creating, sharing, learning from each other, and making noise. It is being hosted at Buckland Hall in Wales from Thursday 30th August- Sunday 2nd September 2018. Buy tickets here! And find out more, here!

We met at the back of a bus, no seriously we did. In the summer of 2016 we were on the way to the station after attending an event where we were both speaking on our respective panels - after bonding over this, we kept sharing ideas and dreams until it felt silly not to work on them together.

who we are

​Rowan makes videos on YouTube about LGBTQ+ issues, feminist advocacy, and pop culture - this has spilled out into “IRL” talks, panels, and workshops across Europe and America. Currently working as the Social Media Manager for the online women’s magazine The Pool, she uses her personal and professional platforms to open conversations and build communities. Rowan can be found in the kitchen, not making you a sandwich.

Krish writes about things people aren't writing about and takes pictures of things people aren't documenting. With a passion for Vedic writing and Hinduism and Androgyny - and on a mission to document androgynous people outside of the norm. They work in PR, in a tech firm based in Euston and are committed to using their platform to up diversity in every field they can. They can be found in the kitchen, sharing a sandwich with Rowan.
